THE SEASON’S BEST FICTION 
The Heart of Sally Temple 
By RUPERT SARGENT HOLLAND

The impersonation of Lady Pamela Vauclain by a pretty actress of Drury Lane 
furnishes the basis of this piquant and humorous novel of 18th century London. 
Sally is an audacious heroine, but her audacity only intensifies the essential sweetness 
of her character, and she carries the reader with her from the first chapter to the last. 
And the author pictures the life of the times no less successfully than he does the heart 
of Sally Temple. SI.25 net; postage 12 cents.

criminal system ever devised, and the most 
dramatic mystery story of the decade.
